About our fire rated sealant in Adur
We often work from an action list drawn up by a fire risk assessor. If you share the list, we can quote for the gaps that need fire-rated sealant. If you have open holes round services passing through fire walls and standard silicone or caulk in a fire-stopping gap, we can help.
If you have holiday lets, a converted barn used for business or a community building near Adur, the washrooms, kitchens and any fire-rated joints need the same care as a big site.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What affects the quote in Adur
Jobs vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- When we can work, for business premises
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- The amount of work
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether the work is at height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Helping us quote
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Photos by email, if that is easy
- Whether it’s a home or a business
- What’s wrong with the joints now
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Tell us where the job is, what’s wrong and how much there is, and email pictures if that’s easy.
Should I try it myself first?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. Joints are cleaned back to sound surfaces and dried, and the sealant is chosen for how the joint moves and where it is, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
The process
There isn’t much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The work itself takes a few hours for a handful of gaps, and longer for a whole building from start to finish. In a small place like Adur, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- Before starting, we go through the specification or action list with you.
- We measure every gap and note what it’s in and what passes through.
- Unsuitable material such as ordinary foam or silicone is cut out.
- The specified fire-rated sealant goes in over any backing its detail requires.
- We hand over a list of locations and products for your records.
How to prepare
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Tell us about any water getting in
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work

Advice
Signs you need fire rated sealant in Adur
Movement in the structure can open gaps too: cracked or debonded sealant leaves an open route through the wall. Knocks, maintenance and building work damage it further.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Open joints along the top of partitions
- Sealant items on a fire risk assessment action list
- Open holes round services passing through fire walls
- Damaged fire sealant left by other trades
If you look after a church, hall or community building such as St Nicolas' Church, service openings in its walls need the right fire-rated sealant, as in any building.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether VAT is included
- Whether they’re fully insured
- How hidden problems are handled
- How long the guarantee is
What sealant work can’t fix
New sealant cannot fix everything, and we’ll tell you before work begins. It won’t solve:
- Large holes that need a different fire-stopping system
- Construction that does not provide fire resistance on its own
- Assessing a building’s fire safety
If in doubt, call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Common questions in Adur
I let a flat near Shoreham-By-Sea station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. Just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will give you a clear quote.
Is Adur in your area for fire rated sealant?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Adur is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing.
What should I tell you?
Only a few details: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. Then ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Does someone need to be in?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
Which products do you use?
Quality sealants from brands including Arbo and Everbuild, chosen to suit the joint. We’ll tell you what we’re using and why.
Where is Mr Mastic based?
Our base is in Crawley, and we work across South East England, London and Scotland.
Is it OK to seal over old sealant?
No. Fresh sealant doesn’t stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. We remove it all first.
Will there be a smell?
Possibly a little. It fades as the sealant cures.
What happens if it’s left?
Leaving a gap until a refurbishment comes round can mean years with it open. Sealing the gap now is a contained job on its own that does not depend on other work. In a small place like Adur, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Doing several joints on one visit normally makes better use of the time than several visits, so tell us about everything that needs sealing. You’ll get one clear quote for the whole job.
Why choose Mr Mastic in Adur
- Neat joints and a tidy finish
- A 12-month guarantee on all work
- We never seal over old sealant
- Fully insured
How the job changes by surface
Door frames
A door can only do its job if the gap behind its frame is sealed too. We seal that gap with a fire-rated sealant suited to the frame and wall.
Flats and HMOs
Converted houses often have gaps around old and new services. We seal the ones on your specification with a tested product.
Fire rated sealant in Adur: local notes
For seaside hotels, guest houses and holiday lets around Adur, busy months put washrooms and kitchens under pressure, so it’s worth checking the sealant before the busiest weeks. Workplaces and the common parts of blocks of flats in England need a fire risk assessment under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, and gaps around services are often picked up there. We apply fire-rated sealant to the assessor’s or designer’s specification and the product’s tested details.
Letting a property close to Shoreham-By-Sea station? Then new cables or pipes through a fire-resisting wall leave a gap that needs the right sealant. If you look after a building such as The Sir Robert Woodard Academy, service openings in fire-resisting walls need checking after any refurbishment.
